The big Chinatown squeeze

On Friday night after work, Daddy & Mummy brought both di-di & me to Chinatown to soak in the festive mood.

Yep, it's Chinese New Year around the corner (more angpows! :P) once again, and Chinatown is unsurprisingly packed with loads of stalls and of course, people!

We had a quick dinner there, and hit the streets slightly before it turned dark and boy, the crowds were already started swarming in liao...

We bumped into Ye-ye there as well, 'cos he was there to buy some stuff... he always love going to Chinatown during CNY! Hee hee...

And once night fell, the whole place was lit up with many pretty lights... bu compared to last year where Mickey Mouse & gang dropped by for a visit, this year's a bit less elaborate lah.

We continued to jalan along all the stalls... and while last year I was busy stuffing my mouth with all the sample mochi, this year I was stuffing myself with long sticks of cuttlefish instead. Hahaha... yah, it's my fave now and think di-di's too. :P

Then we came across something that tickled di-di & me to bits...

It was some dancing little toy that listened to my instructions pretty well. When I asked it to sleep, it laid still. When I asked it to dance, it danced. Interesting... And it made di-di laughed non-stop! Hahaha...

But Daddy later told me that the uncle was controlling it with a thin string lah... chey! :P

The crowd was still building up... and it even made taking photos difficult lor.

So we made a final stop to look at the oxen display before heading home.

Chines New Year is still 1 more week away... remember to prepare your angpows in case you bump into di-di & me! HAHAHA...
